Chalk Outlines

I made a small mistake at work today. I lost a smidge over $2,000. I can’t find it anywhere.

Before you call the state auditor or the Fargo Forum or anything, it’s just lost on paper, not in reality. I’ll find it. I should have paid more attention in pre-calculus class. Or remedial math. I’m definitely missing something. (I hope Ms. Campfield isn’t reading this; all I remember from junior high algebra class is to say “r” like a pirate. “R”? Isn’t algebra about “x”s?)

Here is some easy math, though:

I drew Erma a stoplight and a parking spot this evening with her new box of (now smashed, thank you, Sigourney) colored chalk, and suddenly our driveway became a map to the city, the region, the world. She can take an idea and really chalk it up to something!

Haha! I love the world you drew in chalk for Erma. What a fun mom you are. I’m going to do that for my grandson today!! (and her doll asleep in the bed just cracks me up (more than the sidewalk . . . sorry just had to add that)! And don’t worry, I’m sure the $2,000 will turn up . . . maybe :D
